<p>Fedora 16 is more than two months away from final, stable release, but pre-Alpha installation ISO images have been floating around. News from the Fedora camp have already indicated that btrfs will be the default file system on Fedora 16, joining the ranks of MeeGo, the first (Linux) distribution to use btrfs as the default file system.</p>

<p>Debian is one of a handful of Linux distributions with support for setting up LVM, the Linux Logical Volume Manager. LVM brings a level of flexibility to disk management on Linux that is not possible with the traditional disk partitioning scheme. If your favorite Linux distribution supports LVM, I’ll always recommend that you use it.</p>

<p>Pardus is a Linux distribution with roots in the National Research Institute of Electronics and Cryptology (UEKAE), Turkey. It is one of many distributions that does not have support for the Linux Logical Volume Manager (LVM). However, that is about to change because YALI, the installation program in the next stable version, Pardus 2011, will have full support for LVM.</p>

<p>Zentyal, a Linux distribution formerly known as eBox Platform, is a server distribution which can be used as a network gateway, unified threat manager, office server, infrastructure manager, and a unified communications server. By default, it is installed on an LVM-based disk partitioning scheme, but in a manner that is not optimal.</p>

<p>Fedora 13 is one of the Linux distributions that supports and uses Linux Logical Volume Manager (LVM) as the default disk partitioning scheme. While this is a good thing (it has its <a href="http://linuxbsdos.com/2008/09/24/the-benefits-of-using-linux-logical-volume-manager/" rel="nofollow">benefits</a>), the space allocation to the partitions and logical volumes is not optimal.</p>

<p>The process of installing Logical Volume Management on install…is well…a task that can present issues for most users. So I have tried to lay out a screenshot and description of this process on Debian 5 “Lenny” because many people will want to use LVM once they understand the value and the process.</p>

<p>I recently ordered a brand new PowerEdge T105 server which came with an 80 GB hard disk. I partitioned it with LVM, installed Debian Lenny and moved over the bulk of my things from the old server to the new server. Only one thing remained: my media collection, which is stored on a 500 GB RAID1 array on the old server. That RAID1 array is also partitioned using LVM in a single 500 GB volume group.</p>
